George believes that this look inside the club will appeal to everyone, especially outlaw bikers. "The History Channel has allowed me to present it through my eyes — an outlaw's perception of what it was really like. This has never happened before. In the past, it's always been through the law enforcement's perspective."

In the article, George discusses what it takes to become a member of the club. One particularly harrowing story involves a prospect cutting off one of his own fingers to impress the current members!
